"Productions like this one are such rarities that it hardly seems fair to measure others against them." - Ben Brantley, The New York Times
Kristin Scott Thomas (The English Patient) makes her long-awaited Broadway debut this fall, reprising her Olivier Award-winning performance as the fading star Arkadina in Ian Rickson's stunning production of THE SEAGULL. Joining her in Anton Chekhov's masterpiece about unrequited love and unfulfilled dreams is Peter Sarsgaard (Kinsey), also making his Broadway debut as the conflicted writer Trigorin.
Direct from a sold-out run at London's Royal Court Theatre, where it broke box office records and became the must-see event of the season, THE SEAGULL will be on Broadway for a strictly limited 14-week engagement. The New Yorker calls it, "The finest British production of Chekhov in recent memory," and Variety declared, "Kristin Scott Thomas is mesmerizing in this bold, supremely truthful production." Don't miss this astonishing theatrical event.
